αbϛtrαctioη

The project αbϛtrαctioη started in 2008 when I was looking at posters in the urban environment. One day I started pealing off layers and found the history of the poster behind interesting. The next time I brought a chair and tools to do some archeological digging. So whenever I have been around the world on a photo project I have been looking for objects and taken a chair and working directly on the street. Whether it has been in the gay area in San Francisco, the strict Hezbollah neighbourhoods in Beirut or in my home turf, It is a pleasure to talk to people when sitting in front of a historic street canvas dig and discuss the local history and after displaying my interpretation.
